so you want to display WP posts on a non WP page?

https://www.corvidworks.com/articles/wordpress-content-on-other-pages

is the tutorial I followed.

Yes, exactly that’s what I want to do.

I read that already yesterday.

But, this code there:

<?php while (have_posts()): the_post(); ?>
<h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php the_excerpt(); ?>
<p><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">Read more...</a></p>
<?php endwhile; ?>

Doesn’t this display just the permalinks? If so, what would be the suitable modifications I should be making so as to have the complete posts?

Thanks!

nope

line 1 starts the loop
line 2 displays the title
line 3 displays the excerpt (a post summary) this can be swapped for the_content to display full post
line 4 displays a read more link to the original article
line 5 ends the loop

Its a sample loop, you can modify, add, subtract whatever you like.
Any loop function available in WP would be available on your site using this method

I display the title, the excerpt, the read more, along with thumbnails

https://thevoodooempire.com/blog.php is my non-WP page with posts added

So you mean to say that if I replace ‘the_excerpt()’ with ‘the_content()’ on the third line, that would solve my job?

And then, I would remove the ‘Read More’ link anyway ;)…

Amazing! Thanks!!

Yessir, that would do it

You can look at loop examples in the codex for more info, or even look into WP themes for examples of template tags you can use, but you have the general idea

That’s great :D!

I’ll look into the loop examples again… Surely.

I sure have got the general idea behind that now :).

Template tags? What are those? I’m a newbie with WP…

sorry, I meant to link that earlier. They are what you see throughout your theme telling Wp to display stuff

Okay… I seem to get that now :).

Thanks for all the help! I’m really grateful :).

It’s no problem at all! Good luck!
